Thai Health Promotion Foundation and Bun Bangfai
There is also a parade put on by Thai Health Promotion Foundation, together with other official health organization to promote no alcohol and no smoking which seemingly contrasts the rest of the festival, as Bung Bangfai is a Bun of god of evils and in 2008 the main supporter was the Singha Corporations- big alcohol company in Thailand. Additionally, cigarettes are promoted pretty much all over the festival area. For THPF, alcohol in Bun is a demerit. But this demerit is forgiven in this festival. THPF play a weak role against the unhealthy aspects of the festival, so the participants will not turn anti-THPF. But what will happen if THPF plays a stronger anti-bad health through this festival? They should think more and more if they want to do that.
